Agenda
As always, we’ll start with some relaxed networking and a creative warm-up to meet the people around you. Then, we’ll dive into a friendly debate session, using tried-and-tested methods that make discussions engaging, respectful, and surprisingly fun.
(Final agenda to be announced soon — expect surprises!)
⚠️ Important note:
Whether you love debating or usually shy away from it, this event is for you! Expect light-hearted debates on playful themes — no politics, no heavy ideologies, just curiosity and connection.


What to expect?
This event isn’t about politics or ideology. Expect fun, thoughtful debates on curious, everyday themes. No right or wrong answers, just curiosity and connection.
What You’ll Experience

  • Learn how to disagree without disconnecting
  • Turn debates into bridges, not battles
  • Practice empathy as a communication superpower
  • Discover how listening can be just as powerful as speaking


Who Is It For?
Come solo or bring a friend — this evening is for anyone who enjoys meaningful conversations, creative thinking, and a bit of laughter along the way.
